RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Preface On May 17th 2012, OLG issued to the market RFI# 1213-001 for Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario. The attached are the core Schedules of the RFI, more specifically these are Schedule B "Background Information" and Schedule D "Vendor Questions". Interested parties who wish to submit a response to the RFI must obtain a copy of the full RFI document which includes all RFI terms & conditions, submission instructions and supporting schedules. The RFI can be obtained for download at www.merx.com/olg. RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Schedule B Background Information RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY 1. INTRODUCTION As part of the Ontario Government's new direction to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation ("OLG") in July of 2010, OLG was asked to complete a comprehensive strategic review of the lottery distribution network and land-based gaming facilities. The result of this review was a report to government called Modernizing Lottery and Gaming in Ontario (please see Appendix A to Schedule B). The report outlined three recommendations to achieve this modernization. These included: 1. Become more customer-focused 2. Expand regulated private sector delivery of lottery and gaming 3. Renew OLG's role in oversight of lottery and gaming. The guiding principles for OLG's modernization are to: o o o o Be a modern, efficient agency operating in the best interests of Ontarians. Provide entertainment to Ontarians and visitors alike, while maintaining high, responsible gambling standards. Uphold its record of regulatory compliance with standards established and enforced by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario ("AGCO"). Continue to communicate openly with employees and treat them with respect. At the completion of the modernization exercise in 2017-18, OLG will be: A modern, sustainable organization, which will increase Net Profit to the Province by an additional $1.3 billion annually - all while upholding responsible gambling standards. This proposed reform could see key public priorities like healthcare and education benefit from the additional annual Net Profit to the Province of $1.3 billion by 2017. Over the 6-year transformation period, OLG will provide an additional $4.6 billion to the Ontario government. Employment will grow by over 2,300 net new jobs in the industry (in new gaming facilities and related amenities, as well as in digital gaming design and management), as well as an estimated 4,000 service sector jobs in hotels, restaurants, entertainment centres, and retail. Ontario will continue to be a North American leader in responsible gambling - and support for research and treatment will increase. As overall revenues increase, Ontario's First Nations communities will also continue to receive financial benefit from the industry - based on the planned growth in revenues, it is expected that this benefit will be greater than today. It is anticipated that host municipalities will have a consistent model for funding support but, based on the planned growth, they will also receive more than the current levels overall. In addition, this modernization will create opportunities for up to an additional $3 billion in new capital investment in the province, and the capital costs are expected to be borne by the private sector service providers. OLG will become a more sustainable and efficient organization that ensures that Ontario residents and visitors can play more innovative and fun games in a responsible way. It will continue to be the agency responsible for conducting and managing lottery and gaming in Ontario but will no longer be directly operating all lottery and gaming services (more information on OLG's future role can be found in Section 5 of this document). Ultimately, Ontarians will benefit from a more effective, more valuable gaming industry. The tourist experience of gaming entertainment in Ontario will be enhanced. Achieving this goal will require changes to the way that OLG functions to secure its continued conduct and manage mandate, including: 1. OLG will be the sole owner of customer information across all lines of business, all channels, all points of sale, and all devices. When customers register for a player card, or for access to a website, their information belongs to OLG. OLG will also be the single owner of play information, recording transactions at all points of sale across all channels, types of games, RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 1 FOR INFORMATION ONLY and lines of business. Please note that only portions of this information will be made available to private sector service providers to allow them to operate gaming sites per their agreement with OLG. 2. Using the information above, OLG will decide where and how gaming will be offered in the province in an integrated way across all types of games and all channels. This will include, for instance, determining where land-based gaming sites may be built, what channels lottery products will be sold through, and the establishment of a single internet gaming platform through which all digital game products (lottery or casino-style games) will be offered. 3. OLG will own the agreement with the customer - revenue from all games, including lotterystyle games and casino-style games, whether offered through physical or digital channels, will flow into OLG accounts. Future private sector service providers will be paid fees based on their operational role. 4. OLG will, in all applicable areas, retain the unilateral ability to shut off games and devices (e.g., slot machines) and/or direct the private sector service provider to do so in accordance with OLG and AGCO requirements. More details on OLG's future role specific to the gaming business can be found in Section 5. Several projects are already under way to deliver these capabilities. OLG is developing a customer management solution that will enable a single view of the customer across all lines of business. This will enable OLG to control an integrated customer experience and deliver its responsible gambling across traditional casinos, over the internet, and any other future devices and channels. Internet Gaming Solution To build a digital gaming platform, OLG has already tendered for a vendor to provide an internet gaming solution - (OLG's Request for Proposals for Internet Gaming Solution Service Provider RFP#1112-002). Key components of this internet gaming solution will include the following items: (a) A Player account management system that can be integrated with casino, poker, lottery, sports betting, bingo and other games as determined by OLG, which the chosen vendor could leverage. For digital channels (e.g., internet, mobile), this would serve as both the customer interface and the network. (b) A software solution supporting player registration and authentication. (c) A financial payment processing solution, including a fully-integrated, single-player wallet supporting the online games. (d) Day-to-day operational and support services relating to the foregoing, including the provision and support of OLG's responsible gambling policies. OLG will use the above solution to launch an internet gaming ("iGaming") platform within a responsible, trustworthy, and secure environment. Respondents that are eventually successful in supporting the gaming modernization initiative would be required to use the OLG internet gaming platform to operate designated products in digital channels, and be subject to OLG terms, conditions and approval. In gaming, this may allow land based gaming service providers to operate websites branded using the service provider's brand through the OLG infrastructure and in compliance with OLG standards. OLG is interested in hearing respondents' views on this potential systems arrangement. Customer Information and Gaming Management System To enable OLG's customer information ownership, OLG is planning to implement Bally's Casino Management System as a single gaming management system ("GMS") that would connect to all facilities in the Province. It is expected that this system would allow OLG to exert direct control over persistent data RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 2 FOR INFORMATION ONLY collection, transaction monitoring and all slot machines. It would also allow OLG to give service providers access to data required to deliver marketing programs to customers. Currently, all OLG managed sites use Casinolink as the GMS. During the planned transition phase from Casinolink to Bally's Casino Management System, OLG and private sector service providers would continue to utilize the Casinolink solution until a new system is fully implemented. Similarly, OLG currently operates a single loyalty program called "Winner's Circle" across all of its directly operated facilities. During the transition phase, OLG will continue to operate the back-end of this loyalty program, with implementation being the responsibility of service providers. Purpose of this RFI This RFI is intended to initiate a market sounding process to gauge private sector interest in participating in an expanded way in delivering gaming services in Ontario.This RFI is non-binding and the answers provided by respondents have no influence in the evaluation of any potential future formal competitive process. In no way does this RFI imply, directly or indirectly, that any private sector service provider will be partners with OLG in the gaming business. At OLG's sole discretion, respondents may be invited to participate in further presentation sessions. Any information obtained through this RFI may be utilized in future competitions at OLG's discretion. Respondents are invited to comment on any or all the aspects of this RFI. It is anticipated that the procurement process will be made up of various stages that may include the following: ? Request for Pre-Qualification (RFPQ) - potential release as early as summer 2012 ? Request for Proposal (RFP) - potential release for selected zones beginning as early as fall 2012 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 3 FOR INFORMATION ONLY 2. OPERATING CONTEXT 2.1 OLG's Conduct & Manage role The Criminal Code of Canada generally prohibits the carrying on of any gaming business (including casinos and games of chance, table games, and dice games), but it provides limited exceptions to the general prohibition. Apart from regulated pari-mutuel betting on horse races, the exceptions relate primarily to permitting the provinces of Canada to carry on gaming businesses for their own account, or to license certain other parties (i.e., religious or charitable organizations and boards of fairs and exhibitions) within the province to do so. Section 207(1)(a) of the Criminal Code, the key exception under which OLG operates its gaming businesses, permits the government of a province, either alone or in conjunction with the government of another province, to conduct and manage a broad range of gaming activities known as "lottery schemes" in that province, or in that and the other province, in accordance with any law enacted by the legislature of that province. There are two key requirements that must be satisfied in order for the exception in Section 207(1)(a) of the Criminal Code to be available to a province: (a) The lottery scheme must be "conducted and managed" by the government of a province. To satisfy this "conduct and manage" requirement, the province must be the "operating mind" of the lottery scheme; and (b) The province must have passed enabling legislation to authorize it, or its lottery corporation, to conduct and manage lottery schemes. OLG is constituted under the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Act, 1999 ("OLGC Act"), with the province as its sole shareholder. The organization conducts and manages lottery schemes on behalf of the Ontario under the authority of Section 207(1)(a) of the Criminal Code and in accordance with the OLGC Act. Under any business or operating model, OLG will be the Operating Mind behind the delivery of Gaming, but it may look to a service provider for day-to-day operations of a gaming site. In particular, OLG will retain control over critical and strategic decision making related to lottery and gaming. OLG will also retain responsibility over operational functions as detailed in Section 5 of this document. 2.2 OLG role as an agency of the Crown in Right of Ontario As an agency of the Crown in Right of Ontario, OLG will ensure that all gaming in the Province of Ontario complies with applicable laws and regulations and supports government objectives through various measures, including the following: ? ? Effective systems of internal control to ensure compliance with applicable legislated requirements, and other contractual requirements, including a management monitoring system. Implementation of procedures to satisfy privacy requirements including instituting design methods and systems that adhere to the guidelines and best practices published by the Information Privacy Commissioner of Ontario. The successful proponent(s) of the subsequent Requests for Proposals process will be required to comply with all applicable legislation and other regulatory requirements, including without limitation: a. Applicable legislation specific to the gaming industry in the Province, including the Gaming Control Act 1992, (Ontario) ("GCA"), the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Act, 1999 (Ontario) ("OLG Act"), the Criminal Code of Canada, and the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act); and RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 4 FOR INFORMATION ONLY b. Laws of general application that govern how business is conducted in Ontario by the private sector (e.g., Liquor Licence Act (Ontario), Employment Standards Act, 2000 (Ontario), the Occupational Health and Safety Act (Ontario), the Labour Relations Act, 1995 (Ontario), and the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (Ontario)). Applicable legislation may also include statutes that uphold the public interest in selected areas of public policy. Examples of these statutes include, but are not limited to: ? ? Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (Ontario) ("FIPPA") French Language Services Act (Ontario) OLG reserves the right to impose mandatory policies and procedures - outside of the scope of the applicable statutes noted above - on the successful proponent(s) in the public interest. 2.3 AGCO's Role in Regulating the Gaming Industry in Ontario While the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) is the Crown Corporation in Ontario responsible for the conduct and management of gaming (including lotteries, casinos, iGaming and related business activities), the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), is the Crown agency in Ontario responsible for regulating these activities, including suppliers of gaming and non-gaming services to OLG as well as the OLG itself. As the gaming industry in Ontario has matured over the last few decades, the AGCO has responded by developing a more strategic approach to regulating this sector. This approach is focused on risk assessment, standards setting and achieving compliance. Over the last few years, the AGCO has included various elements of this approach in a number of its regulatory operations. For example --? Risk-Based Registration (RBR) streamlines processes for registration (also called "licensing" in some jurisdictions) of suppliers and gaming assistants based on a risk assessment. A formalized risk assessment process ensures consistency, transparency and fairness for all applicants and provides for a faster, more streamlined registration process for lower risk applicants. More information about RBR is available at http://www.agco.on.ca/en/pdfs/index.aspx. Amendments made to the Gaming Control Act in 2011 authorized the Registrar of Alcohol and Gaming to establish standards and requirements for suppliers. Standards and requirements are being established in collaboration with affected stakeholders and phased in over a period of time, in close collaboration with gaming industry participants, to ensure the industry is well positioned to assume responsibility for compliance with the framework while benefitting from the increased flexibility provided. ? The standards and requirements being developed are based on regulatory risks which were identified in consultation with gaming industry representatives and other stakeholders. The risks identified through this process will be reviewed by the AGCO on a regular basis to ensure the Registrar's standards and requirements remain relevant, effective and appropriate. Standards are generally outcomes that are expected, with the supplier determining how it will achieve the standard. In simple terms, the AGCO will specify the "desired outcome" (the standard) and the business enterprise will determine "how to achieve it". Requirements address risks for which greater attention is necessary. The AGCO's evolving approach aims to reduce targeted risks while increasing business/operational flexibility for OLG and gaming suppliers. This allows the AGCO to focus its regulatory activities on higher risk priorities. The main objective is to create a regulatory system that is RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 5 FOR INFORMATION ONLY more responsive to market conditions and can better address the constant changes within the gaming industry. At the same time, the new system will ensure the AGCO continues to uphold its core responsibility to ensure gaming is operated with honesty, integrity, social responsibility and in the public interest. In the future, the standards and requirements will allow for more business flexibility by establishing a framework that allows OLG and other gaming suppliers to be innovative and design the most efficient and cost effective approaches to achieving compliance while still ensuring regulatory objectives such as protecting the public interest continue to be met. 2.4 Responsible Gambling OLG is mandated to prevent and mitigate the effects of problem gambling. Its enterprise-wide responsible gambling program ("RG Program") is defined by concrete objectives and delivered by the following program elements: employee training, player education, technology, treatment referral, research, and stakeholder relations. All program elements are informed by independent researchers and problem gambling experts, and OLG co-designs and delivers its program with the Responsible Gambling Council of Ontario ("RGC-O"), the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health ("CAMH"), the Ontario Problem Gambling Research Centre, addictions counsellors across Ontario, and the Ontario Problem Gambling Helpline ("OPGH"). In 2012 and beyond, the following external standards will apply to OLG: ? ? ? Compliance with the AGCO's responsible gambling regulatory standard. Accreditation with the third-party "Responsible Gambling Check" ("RG Check") program from the RGC-O. Certification to the highest level of the World Lottery Association's responsible gambling framework. OLG will only engage with service providers for either lottery or gaming services who comply with its RG Program. RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 6 FOR INFORMATION ONLY 3. CURRENT GAMING OPERATIONS Currently, there are 24 gaming facilities across the Province. These gaming facilities are divided into three categories. 1. Slots at racetracks There are 14 slots facilities at racetracks located across the Province. These facilities currently offer slot machines, but do not have table games. OLG is solely responsible for the slot gaming operations, as well as for all employees directly related to gaming operation. The slots at racetracks generated over $1.5 billion in revenues in Fiscal Year 2011 (April 1st 2010 to March 31st 2011). In addition to the 14 facilities above, OLG has recently closed the slots facilities at racetracks in Fort Erie, Sarnia and Windsor. 2. OLG casinos There are five OLG casinos in the Province, where both slots and table games are offered. These properties are owned and operated by OLG and generated approximately $300 million in revenues in Fiscal Year 2011. In addition to these five casinos, OLG has an arrangement with the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation, who own the Great Blue Heron Charity Casino land and building. The Baagwating Community Association, a non-profit, charitable organization formed by the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation conducts and manages the table games in that site as a lottery licensee. Slots at that site are conducted and managed by OLG. Day to day operations are provided under contract by the Great Blue Heron Gaming Company, a private sector service provider. RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 7 FOR INFORMATION ONLY 3. Resort casinos There are also four resort casinos in Ontario that offer slots and table games, in addition to amenities such as hotels, entertainment complexes, and food and beverage offerings. These four casinos generated over $1.2 billion in gaming revenues in Fiscal Year 2011. Private sector service providers run the day to day operations at these sites. 4. THE GAMING BUSINESS MODEL 4.1 Description of the business model To maximize opportunities to assign service provider functions to the regulated private sector gaming business in Ontario, OLG is considering the possibility of allowing private service providers to: ? ? ? Operate gaming facilities within an OLG-defined geographic zone in the Province (for details, please refer to Section 4.3) Acquire the capital assets, currently owned by OLG, that are related to gaming sites (potentially including land, buildings, gaming equipment, etc.) Assume the current operations of OLG's facilities, including the hiring of all current employees and the assumption of vendor agreements. Service providers' flexibility to adjust staffing levels and amend existing vendor relationships will be phased in. In addition, OLG will be seeking - through an RFP process - private gaming service providers interested in the potential opportunity to establish new gaming facilities in select designated geographical zones. These service providers would be responsible for: ? ? ? Constructing and developing the site (which may include the retention of subcontractors) Obtaining relevant approvals The operation of the gaming site, subject to regulatory approval, ongoing regulatory assurance, and the oversight of the AGCO and ongoing oversight by OLG. OLG is interested in understanding if (and under what conditions) Respondents would be interested in assuming these responsibilities. 4.2. Compensation Structure OLG is contemplating a compensation structure that adheres to certain core principles. In no way will this compensation structure create or imply a partnership between OLG and the service provider. All gaming revenue from a site must flow into OLG bank accounts. OLG will then pay service providers a fee based on a percentage of gaming revenue generated at the site. This will promote sustained valuefor-money. The fee paid to the service provider at each site is intended to cover site operating costs, capital costs, and a service fee that provides a reasonable financial return for the service provider. The major operating costs at sites are marketing (including loyalty programs and player rewards), employee salaries and benefits, rent or leases, and other operating costs. Capital costs could include land, building and building improvements, interior fittings, and potentially gaming equipment. RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 8 FOR INFORMATION ONLY The percentage of revenue provided to the service provider may vary from site to site based on the revenue generation potential and cost structure of the site. To ensure performance and effectively conduct and manage the gaming market, OLG is contemplating paying service providers a higher percentage fee if certain operational targets are achieved. OLG is interested in receiving suggestions from respondents related to this compensation structure as well as other alternative compensation structures that OLG should consider exploring. Respondents should be aware that any information obtained through this RFI process may be utilized in the preparation of any future competitive processes at OLG's discretion in a fair and transparent manner. 4.3 Gaming zones To effectively manage the gaming market in the Province, OLG is considering 29 potential gaming zones. Please note, the boundaries of the proposed zones contained in this RFI are drafts, and may change prior to any subsequent RFP being released. In addition, the establishment or relocation of any site within a zone would be subject to municipal and all other relevant approvals. Gaming zones are geographic areas where a service provider will be permitted to operate a single gaming site. The design of these zones is intended to ensure a sustainable and efficient OLG gaming market in Ontario. As such, in each zone, OLG will define: ? ? ? ? Geographic boundaries where the service provider may be allowed to establish a new or relocated gaming site Maximum number of gaming positions and betting limits Types and number of games offered (e.g., slots, tables, sports books) Responsible gambling policies that will apply to all zones across the province In each zone, a service provider would either acquire the existing capital assets and assume operational responsibility for the existing site (where there is an existing site), or be permitted to establish a new site (for new zones). Where a site relocation is contemplated, a service provider would be permitted to relocate an existing site only within the boundaries of the zone. All new or relocated sites would be subject to relevant provincial and municipal approvals. These zones do not affect service providers' ability to market their offering - although some general restrictions might be applied by OLG to ensure sustainability of the market. The proposed zones are not final and may be adjusted based on ongoing discussions with relevant stakeholders and input received through this RFI. OLG would like to understand the interest (and under what conditions) respondents have in acquiring the capital assets and assuming the operations of facilities or constructing and operating new site in individual zones (or groups of zones). For example, OLG would like to understand if respondents are interested in individual zones, and what zones they are interested in, or if they are interested in a group of zones (i.e., combine individual zones). A list of the 29 potential gaming zones follows. For a detailed definition of each zone, please refer to Appendix B to Schedule B. Note that OLG has approval for 29 gaming sites in total. The gaming zones have been divided into four regions: ? Central Ontario (8 zones) RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 9 FOR INFORMATION ONLY ? ? ? Southwestern Ontario (12 zones) Eastern Ontario (4 zones) Northern Ontario (5 zones) Note that these regions have been created only to simplify presentation and discussion of the 29 individual zones, and are not intended to imply any links between the zones. C Zones: Proposed gaming zones in Central Ontario ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? C1: Includes areas along Lake Ontario in Toronto and Mississauga, and areas of Markham and Richmond Hill.

N3: Includes the OLG Casino Thunder Bay. N4: Area around the city of Kenora. N5: Area around the City of North Bay. B. Potential gaming zones that allow for new facilities OLG has received direction from Government to establish up to five new gaming sites in designated zones. The five proposed zones that allow for a new site are: C1, C7, E2, N4 and N5. C. Gaming zones likely to be excluded from a subsequent RFP process Due to existing agreements, the following zones are unlikely to be included in the scope of an RFP with the rest of the zones: C8, SW10, SW11 and SW12. In the future, however, these zones could become part of a procurement process, and OLG is seeking input from the market regarding all zones in this RFP. For further details on these gaming zones and the related facilities, please refer to Appendix B to Schedule B. 4.4 Charitable gaming OLG has committed to ensuring the sustainability of bingo and charitable gaming in the Province of Ontario. Currently, there are 68 bingo halls throughout the Province, with 39 currently planning to modernize in the next two years as part of OLG's bingo and charitable revitalization program. Facilities that offer only paper-based bingo and related games are licensed under section 207(1)(b) of the Criminal Code of Canada, and OLG has a limited role in their operation, restricted to the electronic delivery of bingo games with pooled jackpots such as Big Link and Ultimate Link Bingo. As facilities modernize and add electronic bingo games to their portfolio, OLG takes on responsibility for conducting and managing gambling at those locations. In addition to paper-based bingo games, these facilities are restricted by regulation to offering the following products: ? ? Session play electronic bingo games Paper break-open ticket lottery games RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule B - Background Information 11 FOR INFORMATION ONLY ? ? ? ? ? ? Electronic break-open ticket dispensers Personal play electronic bingo Personal play electronic break-open tickets Personal play electronic instant games Rapid draw bingo Electronic shutterboard games. These facilities may operate in, or near, a number of gaming zones. OLG is not requesting information on the operation of these facilities, which do not form part of this RFI (and would not be included in the operating agreement for a gaming zone). For further information on these facilities, please refer to Appendix C to Schedule B. OLG is interested in understanding the impact of these charitable gaming sites on respondents' interest in relevant gaming zones.

OLG'S ROLE As described in section 2.1, OLG is mandated to conduct and manage gaming in the Province. To fulfill this mandate, OLG will retain control over critical and strategic decision-making, including: strategic planning and market management, gaming service/product offering, financial management, brand management, service provider management, risk management, IT and customer management. OLG is charged with maintaining the overall integrity of gaming operations in Ontario. OLG will approve the types of games offered, ensure that the games rules are fair and that individual games are implemented consistently, and ensure that lottery and gaming are implemented in accordance with applicable law. OLG is interested in understanding how respondents would most effectively work within this mandatory framework, where OLG is responsible for: Responsible Gambling ("RG") ?

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Lottery and gaming are part of Ontario's entertainment and tourism attractions; OLG supports public priorities in Ontario; the challenge of sustaining the current lottery and gaming business; the vision for the future of OLG in Ontario; the value of a modernized lottery and gaming system and three recommendations on how to get there. THREE RECOMMENDATIONS Three broad recommendations: become more customer-focused; expand regulated private sector delivery of lottery and gaming, and increase support for responsible gambling while renewing OLG role in oversight of lottery and gaming. APPENDIX I Background Note: Internet and Charitable Gaming APPENDIX II Description of the consultation process and list of stakeholders consulted RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario INTRODUCTION RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report In July of 2010 the Government of Ontario gave OLG new direction. OLG was asked to modernize commercial and charitable gaming through: o o o an expansion of charitable gaming to allow bingo halls to deliver electronic games; a complete internet gaming platform including peer-to-peer games, selling lottery tickets and a process for private sector vendors to deliver internet gaming, with appropriate oversight; a comprehensive strategic review of the lottery distribution network and land-based gaming facilities. All these initiatives were to include a commitment to socially responsible gambling--particularly age restricted access, privacy controls and maximum betting limits for the internet. Since the inception of lottery and gaming in the province, the overall approach to the business has been reactive: gaming options have evolved over time. This is the first time that OLG has been asked to review its entire operation in a strategic way. OLG was asked to report back to the Ministry of Finance with recommendations on this comprehensive strategic review. STRATEGIC BUSINESS REVIEW In December 2010, based on the government's direction, OLG launched a Strategic Business Review that included consultations with stakeholders and an extensive business analysis. The consultation asked: "What should the gaming marketplace look like in the next three to five years, based on the best interests of Ontarians?" The Strategic Business Review team asked stakeholders to consider five principles or points of discussion: 1. Respond to the marketplace: advice about products, land-based sites and channels based on market demand and customer preferences. Lessen the burden of capital costs on the public purse (within legal boundaries) and maximize the opportunity for private sector investment. Commit to economic development including job creation (direct and indirect), business stimulus and investment. Allow for greater flexibility such as commercial contracts and appropriate risk-sharing with third parties. Clarify payments to stakeholders both in terms of the economic impact of payments as well as transparency and accountability. The Strategic Business Review team met with over 50 stakeholder groups from across the province from December 2010 to June 2011. (For full list, please see Appendix II.) Overall, consultations revealed that stakeholders felt that there has been significant benefit to the province from lottery as well as casinos and slot facilities over the past 20 years. However, the current model in Ontario must change substantially in order to better meet customers' needs. Stakeholders also noted that there is a need to modernize Ontario's lottery and gaming industry based on developments in other jurisdictions. There was broad consensus that the sector needs to change: o o o Lottery and gaming in Ontario should become more market-driven and consumer-responsive. The private sector is willing to invest in gaming and take on a greater operating role. The lottery and gaming sector should embrace the latest in advanced technology and incorporate it into products and services. The role of OLG as a direct operator of all lottery and gaming should be clarified. OLG has the potential to be more efficient and effective. 2. 3. 4. o o 5. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 1 The Strategic Business Review examined a number of research ideas proposed by stakeholders. These included new retail channels and new technology for lottery, new sites for land-based gaming and more efficient operations across the organization. This research led to three key recommendations for change: 1. 2. 3. Become more customer-focused. Expand regulated private sector delivery of lottery and gaming. Renew OLG's role in oversight of lottery and gaming. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY These recommendations could achieve OLG's goal of generating greater and more sustainable Net Profit to the Province as well as economic and social benefits locally.

Become more customer-focused. 2. Expand regulated private sector delivery of lottery and gaming. 3. Renew OLG's role in oversight of lottery and gaming. GUIDING PRINCIPLES FOR TRANSFORMATION o OLG will be a modern, efficient agency operating in the best interests of Ontarians. o OLG will provide entertainment to Ontarians and visitors alike, while maintaining high, responsible gambling standards. o OLG will uphold its record of regulatory compliance with standards established and enforced by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario. o OLG will continue to communicate openly with employees and treat them with respect. OLG IN FUTURE In 2017, OLG is a modern, sustainable organization. There are some 2,300 net new lottery and gaming industry jobs and an estimated 4,000 service sector jobs; about $3 billion has been invested in private capital in Ontario; and OLG has increased Net Profit to the Province by an additional $1.3 billion annually--all while upholding responsible gambling standards. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. 2. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report There are two key reasons to transform lottery and gaming now: Lottery and gaming are here to stay. In fact, last year a total of 8 million Ontario adults (80 percent) played the lottery at least once and 2.7 million (27 percent) visited gaming sites. But OLG's offering could be more modern. OLG contributes $1.7 to $2 billion in Net Profit to the Province for important public priorities, but the current model could provide more value. The long-term sustainability of that revenue is at risk, primarily due to a business model that is not serving customers as well as it could. LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIO Lottery and gaming have been a part of Ontario's entertainment and tourism industries for decades. Lottery in Ontario began in 1975 with Wintario, which was designed to raise money for local community projects. In September of 1994, Ontario's first casino opened in Windsor. Slots-At-Racetracks were launched in 1998. On behalf of the Ontario government, OLG is responsible for 4 resort casinos, 17 slots at racetrack facilities and 5 OLG casinos, Great Blue Heron Charity Casino as well as the sale of lottery products at over 10,000 independent lottery retailers. OLG conducts and manages 6 eBingo sites. OLG directly employs about 7,700 people (and indirectly, through private sector operators, an additional 10,000 people) across Ontario. Lottery and gaming are popular forms of entertainment in the province. Almost two-thirds of Ontarians over the age of 19 have visited a casino or slots facility at least once. Fully 80 percent of Ontario adults played a lottery game last year and about half the adult population plays lottery on a regular basis. In 2010, the government gave OLG direction to launch internet gaming and expand charitable gaming. In charitable gaming, OLG has launched a four-way partnership between bingo halls, host municipalities, the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario and OLG to expand charitable gaming. At the same time, OLG was asked to find $100 million in annual efficiencies. All these initiatives are currently underway and are part of OLG's modernization plan. OLG is the largest gaming organization - and jurisdiction - in North America, with 33 gaming sites and 10,000 lottery points of sale Thunder Bay ONTARIO 4 Resort Casinos 17 Slots at Racetracks 5 OLG Casinos Great Blue Heron 10,000 Retail Locations 17,700 people including Resort Casinos Sudbury 6 eBingo Facilities 7 Offices and Warehouses Sault Ste.

CONTRIBUTION TO THE PROVINCE The legislative authority of OLG is set out in the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Act, 1999 and OLG has a single shareholder, the Government of Ontario. OLG has consistently delivered profit (Net Profit to the Province) to the people of Ontario. OLG (and its predecessor organizations) has provided over $34 billion to the Province, since 1975 (up to March 31, 2011). OLG's Net Profit to the Province in each of the last seven years has ranged from $1.7 billion to $2.0 billion. In 2011-12, the profit from lottery and gaming will support health care, education and infrastructure as well as the Ontario Trillium Foundation ($120 million), problem gambling and related programs ($41 million) and support for amateur athletes through Ontario Amateur Sports ($10 million). In addition to OLG's payments to the Province, there are also several direct beneficiaries of gaming proceeds including the horseracing sector (approximately $345 million in 2011-12), host municipalities (approximately $92 million in 2011-12) and from both lottery and gaming, Ontario First Nations (approximately $117 million in 2011-12). Lottery and gaming also contributes to the Ontario economy in a number of ways. In 2010-11, OLG operations generated $3.7 billion in total economic activity in the province (OLG data, www.olg.ca). RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report OLG TODAY: THE CASE FOR CHANGE While gaming and lottery playing have been wellaccepted entertainment options for decades, the current OLG business model is not sustainable over the long term. Advances in technology, changes to shopping patterns, aging demographics, and declining visits from the U.S. have combined to threaten the industry and the contribution to the Province. The lottery and casino games available in Ontario were designed in the 1970s and in the 1990s for the core gaming demographic of the time. Ontario is different now--people's interests in various recreation options have evolved. People shop differently and they play differently. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 5 Ontario Recreational Spending Growth RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Currently there is increasing competition for customers' spending money. Live entertainment took up more share of wallet than lottery and gaming in 2009 for the first time since 2001. Cable & pay TV and live entertainment continued gaining share.

Since then, there has also been a significant increase in the technology that supports the lottery and gaming business. In some aspects of the business, OLG has not kept pace with available improvements in technology. In addition, advances in technology have also created the opportunity for online gaming. In Ontario, an estimated $400 million is spent annually on gaming sites not authorized in Ontario. Demographic shifts About 88 percent of OLG land-based gaming revenue is from slot machines, which have limited appeal to players under 45. These players prefer table games like black jack and poker. Demand for slot machine gaming is not expected to grow and will plateau in the coming years. U.S. Visits In 2002, some 23 million U.S. residents entered Ontario every year. By 2011, the number declined to 7 million U.S. residents--a drop of 70 percent. Between 1998 and 2008, the number of U.S. residents entering Windsor has dropped by 74 percent. Gaming revenues are also flattening, due to competition from neighbouring U.S. states. When casinos first opened, border communities had few gaming options. Now a number of U.S. cities in bordering as well as other states have casinos--or are planning to expand their offerings-- including Chicago, Detroit, Baltimore, Boston and Buffalo as well as a number of locations in Ohio. Changes to shopping patterns OLG's current terminal technology limits where lottery tickets can be sold and does not fully reflect current shopping patterns. The majority of Ontario adults under 45 frequent supermarkets, big box stores and large retail locations. As a result, even though 50 percent of adult Ontarians play the lottery regularly, just 14 percent of adults under 45 play the lottery at least once a week. 6 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION At the same time, OLG's existing agreements foster internal competition, resulting in less value for marketing dollars spent. OLG resort casinos and other facilities compete with one another by marketing to the same customers. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Increased lottery sales and profits from LOTTO 6/49, LOTTO MAX and INSTANT tickets have only partially offset the decline from resort casinos. These games are also beginning to plateau in terms of sales--due partially to the decline in players under 45. Based on per capita gaming profit in other Canadian provinces, the people of Ontario do not derive comparable benefit from lottery and gaming. If the customer base was significantly broadened, meaning more people playing a little, the province could benefit. On average, the lottery and gaming industry returns about $220 to every resident of Canada. Ontario, on the other hand, contributes about $149 per capita. B.C. and Alberta have seen considerable growth in the last five years, while Ontario's and Quebec's growth has been flat. By becoming more innovative, OLG could be more efficient and effective. Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Today, investing to improve OLG's current facilities would require government money. The Ontario government has in recent years, to positive effect, been using private partnerships to move the risk of public capital investment to the private sector. For example, some 18 hospitals are being built in Ontario through these partnerships. The impact of all these developments on OLG business has been profound and has led to an unsustainable future for the organization. Over the past 10 years, the profits from gaming facilities close to the U.S. border have dropped from $800 million in 2001 to $100 million in 2011. Resort casinos alone have declined by over $600 million. Net Profit to the Province per Capita 2011 $463 $339 $266 $242 $209 $168 $162 $150 $149 $92 $77 AB SK MB BC NL NB QC NS ON PEI YK,NW NU MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 7 Net Gaming Revenue per Adult 2011 RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY In terms of gaming revenue, OLG's performance is average compared to other Canadian provinces. Ontario ranked fifth in net gaming revenue per adult in 2010. In recent years, OLG has maintained Net Profit to the Province to government in the absence of substantial new opportunities. However, without fundamental change, the Province should expect a gradual decline in revenue. Most single or one-off options to improve sustainability, modernize the business and improve profit to government will not produce the best results. For example, simply reducing staffing levels would reduce costs but would not help improve the customer experiences or deliver innovation. OLG's current operating model for lottery terminals and supporting technology could be updated but it would be costly to replace the outdated infrastructure with public funding. Over the next five years, simply maintaining existing OLG infrastructure will require an additional investment of $1 billion in public funds. Major improvements to transform and modernize OLG's infrastructure could cost taxpayers up to $3 billion. Substantial change to the business within the current model could be costly, risky and unpalatable to many stakeholders. In one potential scenario, by 2017, due to the declining participation of younger adult players, the impact of technology and cross-border competition, annual profit to government could decline by $400 million.

Combined with previously announced plans for iGaming and efficiencies, this proposed reform could see key public priorities like health care and education benefit from additional annual Net Profit to the Province of $1.3 billion by 2017. Over the six-year period of the transformation, OLG will provide an additional $4.6 billion to the Ontario government. Employment will grow by over 2,300 net new jobs in the industry (in new gaming facilities and related amenities as well as in digital gaming design and management) as well as an estimated 4,000 service sector jobs in hotels, restaurants, entertainment centres and retail. Ontario will continue to be a North American leader in responsible gambling--and support for research and treatment will increase. As overall revenues increase, Ontario's First Nations communities will also continue to receive financial benefit from the industry--at a level higher than today's. Host municipalities would have a consistent model for funding support but overall will receive more than the current level, based on planned growth. Ontario will see an additional $3 billion in new private sector capital investment in the province. The capital costs of expanding, improving or simply maintaining gaming facilities will not be carried by taxpayers. The private sector will take on the role of building new gaming facilities or expanding existing ones. The costs to the public to own and operate lottery and gaming will be significantly reduced. Regulated private sector providers will help define where the market for new facilities exists, consistent with government policy, responsible gambling standards and municipal approval. OLG and the government will retain the right to approve the location of any new site. OLG will become a more sustainable organization that ensures that Ontario residents and visitors can play more innovative and fun games in a responsible way. OLG will continue to be the lead agency for lottery and gaming in Ontario, but no longer be directly delivering all lottery and gaming services. The future OLG will set standards for the customer experience, but allow the private sector to decide specifics. OLG will set standards for access, integrity, security and responsible gambling. In the long term, OLG will likely have a small operational footprint--it will do less. The organization will instead focus on core customer management, delivering a leading responsible gambling program, as well as overseeing the regulated private sector providers and the implementation of government gaming policy. Ultimately, Ontarians will benefit from a more effective, more valuable operation. The tourist experience of gaming entertainment in Ontario will be enhanced. It will be easier for Ontario businesses to participate with OLG in lottery or gamingrelated opportunities. OLG will become a more efficient organization focusing on well-defined control and oversight functions, rather than day-to-day operations. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 9 HOW DO WE GET THERE? RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report This report makes three recommendations for systemic change. If followed as a whole, these recommendations will profoundly change the lottery and gaming industry in Ontario, rendering it more sustainable, more efficient and more valuable for the people of the province. ONE / Become More Customer-Focused facilities to be located where customers are. As part of this effort, slot facility locations should not be limited to racetracks. As is current practice, municipalities will continue to receive financial support from the gaming operations in their communities through a portion of gaming revenue for the benefit of the community. However, OLG should introduce a consistent fee model for host municipalities. This would facilitate the introduction of a mix of games at sites. Funding levels should continue to be determined by customer volume. Like any commercial operation, OLG needs to be responsive to customers. Gaming across the province needs to better reflect what customers want and should be closer to them. OLG is recommending the expansion of lottery sales options to multi-lane retailers, including supermarkets and big box stores, while continuing to support convenience store retailers. OLG is also recommending that government allow for the expansion and consolidation of gaming sites, based on customer interest. The government should allow gaming TWO / Expand Regulated Private Sector Delivery of Lottery and Gaming OLG would manage the provincial market and the private sector would invest in it. New locations would be subject to the approval of host municipalities. In lottery, OLG should shift the day-to-day operation of its lottery network to a regulated private sector operator. There should also be an expansion of retail options for lottery sales including multi-lanes in large stores, the internet and mobile devices. At the same time, OLG should allow for regulated private sector game development to foster innovation and increase responsiveness. OLG needs to engage the private sector in building a new model for gaming in Ontario--while OLG maintains control and accountability. In order to enable efficient operations, avoid public expenditure on capital and address interest in land-based gaming, OLG should expand private sector participation in the efficient, effective delivery of casinos and gaming products. The first step would be for OLG to develop a competitive and transparent procurement process for these activities. The result would be regulated private operators selected to run existing and new sites. THREE / Renew OLG's Role in Oversight of Lottery and Gaming with its regulator, the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). At the same time, Ontario should continue to lead the continent in responsible gambling standards and expand research and treatment support. In any expansion of lottery and gaming, OLG must continue to provide safe gaming options and commit to increased environmental practices. OLG should improve both its business and infrastructure systems to appropriately manage all customer interaction from lottery to internet to casinos. This would allow the organization to more efficiently fulfill its function as a manager, protector and steward of customer information. OLG should become a leaner, more efficient organization focused on well-defined market management and oversight functions. OLG will continue to work positively 10 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION These three recommendations should be seen as a comprehensive approach to modernizing the gaming sector and they should not be implemented individually. This systemic reform of the sector is substantial and it has significant implications for various stakeholders. Some of these considerations are outlined throughout the recommendation section. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY o o The following chapter outlines in detail each of the three recommendations for the modernization of gaming in Ontario. This approach, together with OLG's ongoing initiatives, will, by 2017-18, provide an additional $1.3 billion in annual Net Profit to the Province and create about 2,300 net new industry jobs--and an estimated 4,000 jobs in hotels, restaurants, entertainment centres and retail. The estimate for increased Net Profit to the Province is based on the following: o Modernize and shift the day-to-day operation and capital development of gaming facilities to private sector; build new facilities based on customer interest; renegotiate the funding formula for municipalities to allow for a broader game offering; end the funding formula for slots at racetracks: about $740 million increase in Net Profit to the Province annually. o Modernize and shift the day-to-day operation of the lottery network to private sector operators; invest in new player technology; allow private sector to design lottery games; expand distribution of lottery through new channels: about $180 million increase in Net Profit to the Province annually. Deliver a full range of games on the internet through an online site accessible by computer and other internet-connected devices including lottery ticket sales, interactive casino-style games (against the house) and peer-to-peer games (like poker): about $100 million increase in Net Profit to the Province annually. Improve efficiencies at OLG as it focuses on being a smaller organization focused on market management and a leader in responsible gambling: $260 million increase in Net Profit to the Province annually. Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Ontario is facing a large deficit and over six years, as the plan is implemented, OLG would contribute an additional $4.6 billion for critical services like health care and education. $1.3 billion to the province $740 million $260 All told, these initiatives would widen the appeal of million gaming. OLG would broaden the player base by becoming $180 million more appealing--not increasing the amount that current $100 customers gamble. These initiatives would also million substantially reduce the amount of public capital invested in gaming sites and lottery infrastructure and encourage efficiency and innovation. Additional Net Profit to the Province $260 million Improve efficiencies $740 million $100 million Continue current implementation of internet initiative $1.3 billion to the province Additional Casino and slot facility modernization and end Slots at Racetrack funding $180 million Lottery innovation MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 11 RECOMMENDATION ONE Become More Customer-Focused RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Like any commercial operation, OLG needs to be responsive to customers. Gaming across the province needs to better reflect what customers want and should be closer to them. OLG is recommending the expansion of lottery sales options to multi-lane retailers, including supermarkets and big box stores, while continuing to support convenience store retailers. OLG is also recommending that government allow for the expansion and consolidation of gaming sites, based on customer interest. The government should allow gaming facilities to be located where customers are. As part of this effort, slot facility locations should not be limited to racetracks. As is current practice, municipalities will continue to receive financial support from the gaming operations in their communities through a portion of gaming revenue for the benefit of the community. However, OLG should introduce a consistent fee model for host municipalities. This would facilitate the introduction of a mix of games at sites. Funding levels should continue to be determined by customer volume. CONTEXT IN LAND-BASED GAMING Historically, government has maintained the location and size of facilities, based on priorities that were not always responsive to customers. As a result, at some sites there are too many slot machines. In other markets however, particularly in the Greater Toronto Area, customer interest is not being met. Three of Ontario's resort casinos, as well as five OLG facilities, are adjacent to the U.S. border, making it easier for U.S. travelers to visit. However, due to competitive U.S. casinos, the rise in the Canadian dollar, the rising price of gas and the increasing security at the border, the number of visiting U.S. customers has declined. (Sources: Bank of Canada, Ontario Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Recreation.) Slot facilities currently, with few exceptions, are not located near population-dense urban centres--where the majority of Ontarians live. The gaming facilities in this province were, by and large, designed over a decade ago and not only have customer preferences evolved since then, so too has technology. The customer base for gaming is aging rapidly. Adult players under 45 typically do not play slot machines. Adult customers under 45 who do visit casinos overwhelmingly prefer to play table games like black jack and poker. Gaming Customer Age FY 2008 / 09 50+ 78% 19-50 22% The requirement to locate slots at racetracks limits site locations and impedes OLG's ability to serve customers closer to where they live and is therefore not responsive to customer interest. Based on the current Slots at Racetrack program, the horseracing sector is projected to receive $345 million (2011-12). Since the program was launched, horsepeople and racetrack owners have received over $3.4 billion. OLG is also limited in the game mix it can offer to customers due to current municipal funding arrangements. If OLG were to change the game mix, the cost to OLG would be prohibitive. Municipalities where gaming facilities exist benefit in a number of ways from gaming. Tourist appeal, employment, the use of local suppliers and economic 12 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION development all expand when gaming facilities are located in a community. In addition, host municipalities generally receive a percentage of slot revenue. In 2011-12, host municipalities are forecasted to receive about $92 million from slot and casino revenues. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY CONTEXT IN LOTTERY Since lottery games were introduced over 35 years ago, the desires of customers have evolved and technology has advanced considerably. Ontarians purchase lottery products through a retail clerk who hands them a paper ticket. OLG has a largely paper-based lottery system in an economy that is increasingly paper-free. Ontario's sales model does not fully meet the needs of today's customers. There are about 10,000 terminals across the province and the vast majority are in convenience stores. OLG continues to rely heavily on convenience (and convenience with gas) stores for the primary delivery of lottery tickets (some two-thirds of sales), while Ontarians are shopping more frequently at large retailers such as supermarkets and big box stores. Lottery sales have, though, become an increasingly critical component of the convenience store business. Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report DESCRIPTION: CUSTOMER FOCUS Like any commercial operator, OLG needs to be able to expand or contract gaming sites, based on customer interest--and always with consideration of OLG's responsible gambling priorities. New or relocated gaming sites would only go to municipalities that have explicitly approved them and where there is a clear business case. OLG and the government would continue to have the right to approve new or relocated gaming sites. In lottery, OLG needs to improve the customer experience by offering lottery tickets in more locations where people currently shop. This would mean expanding sales to multi-lanes in supermarkets and big box stores. The Slots at Racetracks Program limits OLG's flexibility to locate gaming facilities near OLG customers. Furthermore, the formula restricts OLG's ability to maximize revenues for key government priorities. As such, the Slots at Racetracks Program should be drawn to a close. To improve the ability to offer a mix of games at sites, OLG should establish a fair and simple funding model that would supply a portion of slot machine revenue to host municipalities, independent of the type of facility. A straightforward formula would have two key benefits: 1. 2. Make the formula consistent across municipalities. Provide flexibility for the decision to add table games or other new games, based on customer interest, municipal consent and OLG's provincial market plan. Core Lottery Players 2000 2009 16% 18-24 5% 31% 25-34 17% 30% 35-44 18% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% The decline in participation in lottery by players under 45 has been severe in recent years. Overall, the average age of the player base is increasing, and current lottery games in existing channels do not attract players under 45. Major lotteries outside North America have established internet lottery to attract adults under 45. Norsk Tipping, the Norwegian national lottery, for example, produces over 10 percent of sales over the internet, with tight responsible gambling restrictions and age verification. In other jurisdictions, lottery tickets are sold across all lanes in grocery stores. Quebec has multi-lane sales and British Columbia has internet lottery ticket sales options. Camelot UK Lotteries Ltd., the UK National Lottery operator, achieved strong results in about five years in conjunction with a fast-pay card. Responsible gambling research indicates that e-cards for play help to combat problem gambling. Once existing site holder agreements have been terminated, OLG will engage in negotiations on new arrangements for OLG and/or private sector vendors to occupy space at racetrack locations where there is customer interest. Casinos that are operated in cooperation with First Nations have separate agreements that are subject to current contracts.

Convenience store lottery terminal locations will continue to be a priority. New games, enabled by third party developers, would add to lottery sales in convenience stores. Employment is growing annually in Ontario's digital media sector. With the addition of expanded opportunities in lottery, there would be additional growth in game design jobs. New lottery sales options must be consistent with Ontario responsible gambling standards. New contractual arrangements with racetracks and municipalities will require the re-negotiation of existing arrangements, with sufficient notice. o The majority of host municipalities would continue to receive the same benefit under a revised formula. New arrangements should ensure that municipalities retain the ability to use funds as they see fit, as is current practice. With municipal council approval, a new facility in the Greater Toronto Area or elsewhere in the province would increase revenue to that municipal government. Explicit municipal consent would be required for any host community. Any new facility proposal would include government sign-off and oversight, AGCO registration, a business case completed by OLG, and the need for local community consultation, support and approval. o o o o o o o o o 14 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION RECOMMENDATION TWO RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Expand Regulated Private Sector Delivery of Lottery and Gaming OLG needs to engage the private sector in building a new model for gaming in Ontario, while OLG maintains control and accountability. In order to enable efficient operations, avoid public expenditure on capital and address interest in land-based gaming, OLG should expand private sector participation in the efficient, effective delivery of casinos and gaming products. The first step would be for OLG to develop a competitive and transparent procurement process for these activities. The result would be regulated private operators selected to run existing and new sites. OLG would manage the provincial market and the private sector would invest in it. New locations would be subject to the approval of host municipalities. In lottery, OLG should shift the day-to-day operation of its lottery network. There should also be an expansion of retail options for lottery sales including multi-lanes in large stores, the internet and mobile devices. At the same time, OLG should allow for regulated private sector game development to foster innovation and increase responsiveness. CONTEXT OLG is currently responsible for 23,000 slot machines and over 500 games tables in Ontario as well as 27 gaming facilities and over 10,000 lottery terminals. Currently, any maintenance and improvements to facilities or products require public sector investment. At the same time, the Ontario government has been using alternative financing and procurement processes to invest in public capital projects, such as hospitals. OLG directly employs about 7,700 people at sites and facilities as well as at head offices sites. Through the privately-operated gaming sites, there are about 10,000 indirect employees. OLG assumes the cost of these employees as well. Today, the commercial operators working with OLG compete with OLG for customers. A private sector provider will not invest in a market where it is asked to share customer information with OLG while competing with OLG's owned and operated sites. At the same time, OLG facilities in need of capital improvements rely on public funds to do so. Any new facility, under current arrangements, would be built with public dollars. OLG could focus more clearly and more effectively on its role as the operating mind of the gaming sector by bringing in the private sector for capital investment and some operating expenses. In consideration of maintaining profit to the Province, OLG has under-invested in the infrastructure required to run its lottery business over the last five to 10 years. The lottery and shared services divisions of OLG are operating on a patchwork of outdated systems that require significant maintenance to keep running. Direct ownership of the technology has created extensive financial and labour commitments across the province. The lottery terminals are also not being used at capacity-- namely, they are only used for lottery tickets, though other options are technically available (such as phone cards and iTunes(R) cards). The terminals are almost fully depreciated and will soon need to be replaced. DESCRIPTION: GAMING OLG could engage regulated private operators to run the day-to-day operations of all existing OLG-operated gaming facilities and all new facilities. They would be paid a fee for this work. To do so, OLG should implement a consistent set of terms and conditions for operating a land-based gaming site in Ontario that is fair, transparent and that encourages private sector investment. Location and site designs would be approved and overseen by OLG, but initiated, built and paid for by the private sector. OLG needs to establish a level playing field by establishing a consistent private operating model that gives regulated providers the incentive to operate in their own interests, while OLG controls the parameters of gaming, maximizes Net Profit to the Province and ensures Ontario's responsible gambling standards are upheld. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 15 This would include identifying distinct gaming zones where existing or new gaming sites could be permitted. These defined gaming zones will help reduce the impact of one gaming site upon another. Customer interest should determine the size and genre of gaming facility in a zone. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY The right to operate in a particular geographic area should also be determined by OLG. Regulated private sector operators would have defined rights to operate land-based gaming inside the boundaries of a zone. In advance of an open, transparent procurement process to obtain operating rights, a map of zones, their definitions and their parameters should be planned by OLG in consultation with stakeholders. Should OLG move out of the daily operation of facilities, OLG's current direct employees at gaming sites could have the option of working at privately-operated facilities. OLG could also transfer the assets that are required to operate business to the regulated private sector providers. And in the future, the private sector would build and own new capital assets. By reducing OLG's interest in capital assets, regulated operators could finance their expansion plans through capital markets. OLG would be the sole steward of customer information and would determine market management principles for all sites. While maintaining the integrity of lottery games, OLG should shift the day-to-day operation of the lottery network to a regulated private sector operator. A private operator of the terminal network would have the incentive to work with convenience store owners to save money and expand the services they provide via lottery ticket terminals. This would also enable the introduction of new points-of-sale for lottery products including multi-lane checkouts in large stores, mobile devices and home personal computers. Lottery terminals have the potential to provide many more services--and could do so with private sector investment. These services could include the ability to sell phone cards, gift cards and iTunes(R) cards. This would help retailers to reduce inventory costs. OLG should also consider various approaches to reusable tickets such as stored value cards or RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) cards. A stored value card is similar to a phone card and an RFID card could store a customer's preferred numbers--and allow the customer to check his or her numbers. These innovations would be carried out in consultation with Ontario's Privacy Commissioner. The introduction of new capabilities for lottery terminal devices should, first and foremost, maintain the integrity of games and could also focus on several areas: o o o o o Effectiveness of store operations (automation of paperwork, just in time inventory management) Operational cost reductions (security/surveillance, monitoring, alarms) Connectivity for Point-Of-Sale (leveraging the high speed network) Communications ability (phone, fax, internet) New revenue generation (prepaid services, instant coupons, gift cards, digital signage, government services, etc.) Additional services (connectivity for micro payment solutions, Wi-Fi connectivity, etc.) and all while maintaining the integrity of the games. Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report ONTARIO FIRST NATIONS The Province has a funding arrangement with Ontario First Nations whereby OLG distributes 1.7 percent of total revenue (estimated at $117 million in 2011-12) to the Ontario First Nations Limited Partnership, 2008 (OFNLP, 2008). The funds are to be distributed to Ontario First Nations for use in education and health initiatives as well as economic, social and community development. With this plan, payments to OFNLP are expected to increase. In addition to the two current gaming locations (Casino Rama and Great Blue Heron Charity Casino) on First Nations land, Ontario First Nations should be free to bid in OLG's procurement process, either as a solo proponent or in partnership with other organizations, for the opportunity to operate in a zone. o DESCRIPTION: LOTTERY Based on defined criteria, customer interest and Ontario's responsible gambling standards, private operation of the lottery distribution network would enable a selected vendor to determine the distribution and location of future lottery terminals. OLG should set the standards for external developers to create new and innovative games. This should also encourage the faster development of new games that appeal to new customers. 16 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION KEY CONSIDERATIONS o RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Considerable interest exists among private sector stakeholders to invest and to assume a greater role in operations. Private sector operators would be able to run operations more efficiently and effectively. Private sector experts in technology support and channel sales have indicated interest in working with the largest lottery jurisdiction in Canada--and one of the largest markets in North America. Competitive procurement process will need to consider parameters of geography, population, tourism zones and proximity to the U.S. o The procurement process will also need to account for existing bingo locations and current private sector investments. OLG will continue to be responsible for setting the rules, the odds and the payments as well as conducting the draws for all lotteries in Ontario. It is important to OLG to make sure that lottery terminals maintain the highest security standards. OLG will control game integrity and design while managing the private sector's access to the market. OLG will work with the private sector to ensure that customers are served in all parts of the province. o o o o o o o MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 17 RECOMMENDATION THREE RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Renew OLG's Role in Oversight of Lottery and Gaming OLG should improve both its business and infrastructure systems to appropriately manage all customer interaction from lottery to internet to casinos. This would allow the organization to more efficiently fulfill its function as a manager, protector and steward of customer information. OLG should become a leaner, more efficient organization focused on well-defined market management and oversight functions. The OLG will continue to work positively with its regulator, the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). At the same time, Ontario should continue to lead the continent in responsible gambling standards and expand research and treatment support. In any expansion of lottery and gaming, OLG must continue to provide safe gaming options and commit to increased environmental practices. CONTEXT The lottery and gaming marketplace is comprised of a number of different sectors, industries, regulated and unregulated operators, as well as provincial and federal bodies that oversee, regulate, and set standards in the lottery and gaming business. OLG, often referred to as the "operator", is a Crown agency of the Ontario government with responsibility for "conducting and managing" lottery games, a number of casino gambling facilities and charitable gaming centres (i.e. bingo halls with electronic games). The Criminal Code sets out the parameters under which lottery and gaming is legal in Canada. Under the Code, gaming may only be "conducted and managed" by the province or certain licensed entities. OLG "conducts and manages" lottery and gaming on behalf of Ontario, in accordance with the Code. AGCO, often referred to as the "regulator", is also a Crown agency of the Ontario government, responsible for the regulation of resort casinos, facilities directly operated by OLG: OLG casinos, slot facilities at racetracks, and lotteries conducted by OLG. AGCO's responsibilities also include a range of other responsibilities, such as administration of the Liquor Licence Act. Historically, OLG has been responsible for the oversight and operation of its gaming sites. This has resulted in a large proportion of the organization dedicated to operations. Today it is more appropriate for OLG to focus on customer information, market management, oversight and responsible gambling. Other Canadian jurisdictions have moved to more modern approaches to the operation of lottery and gaming. When Ontario expanded gaming beyond resort casinos, the most accessible way at the time to demonstrate control was to own and operate all facets of the gaming experience. Since then, technology has advanced considerably and OLG's experience in gaming has evolved. Currently, OLG is working on a number of initiatives to help position the organization for change and help it function more efficiently. For example, OLG's knowledge of its customers today is managed and secured across multiple business units and shared services, both internally and via third parties. OLG's customer database includes: o o o almost 2 million Lottery players 2.6 million Slots & Casino players; and over 5 million Resort Casino players. BCLC The British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) determines where gaming facilities go. BCLC owns the games and the game management system as well as the loyalty program. BCLC works with the private sector on where and how gambling opportunities will be made available. Private sector providers supply the facilities and operate casinos. 18 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION OLG is currently implementing an advanced gaming management system that will allow for an integrated view of all operations as well as all product and customer behaviour across all properties. While the majority of Ontarians gamble without any detrimental impact, a small portion develop moderate to severe gambling problems. RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY There must be OLG-set standards for access, integrity, security and responsible gambling. In the long term, OLG will likely have a small operational footprint--it will do less--but maintain oversight over the gaming experience in Ontario. Ultimately, Ontarians will benefit from a more modern, more sustainable and more valuable operation. Under the transformed model for gaming, OLG would continue to define all policies and set thresholds for number of sites and games. For example, OLG would determine the maximum number of gaming devices in any site or geographic area. OLG would also set policies in relation to marketing activities and maintain the enterprise brand. OLG would also help ensure legal compliance (along with AGCO and the OPP) in areas such as money laundering, investigations, fraud and collusion. All told, OLG would be a much smaller organization focused on customer information, market management, the oversight of a portfolio of private operators as well as responsible gambling. Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Ontario is an acknowledged North American leader in Responsible Gambling prevention, research, and treatment. This province has one of the broadest networks of gambling counselors and some the world's leading thinkers and practitioners in the field. These specialists and experts inform OLG's Responsible Gambling program. DESCRIPTION OLG should renew its approach (consistent with that of other provinces) to focus more on what is required for the successful operation of a modern gaming model including: o o o o customer and game management (customer touch points, databases, approval of marketing programs). market management (channel strategy, high-level planning for new gaming sites, product strategy); oversight (integrity, security, legal compliance); and responsible gambling. RESPONSIBLE GAMBLING In a transformed industry, OLG would continue to set policies and help establish Ontario's Responsible Gambling standards--maintaining and improving its current leadership in the responsible gambling field. OLG will continue to provide North American leadership in responsible gambling by: o o o o o maintaining a strong funding base; ensuring all operations meet rigorous external standards advancing technology practices; integrating safe measures into overall customer experience; and continuing ongoing partnerships with independent provincially-funded agencies. DESCRIPTION: CUSTOMER INFORMATION OLG should become a leader in customer information data. Reliable and consistent customer information is important from both a customer-preference and responsiveness point of view as well as for responsible gambling purposes. OLG should adopt a "privacy by design" strategy to ensure careful stewardship of the personal information contained in OLG's customer database. This will safeguard customer privacy and ensure--among other things--that personal information is used only for defined and express purposes. OLG will continue to seek the expertise and guidance of the Ontario Information and Privacy Commissioner on how best to embed best-in-class privacy protections in its data management systems. DESCRIPTION: OVERSIGHT It is important however, to retain a government presence where the public interest needs to be protected. Lottery and gaming are forms of entertainment widely enjoyed by millions of Ontarians so it is critical that OLG maintain a substantial degree of control over how they are run. The evolution of technology to support customer decisions while gambling enables greater personal control and the collection of data. This information helps OLG better understand how it can encourage players to make informed choices. OLG plans to promote a new suite of individually-directed help services being developed by the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, including a world-first internet counseling program for gamblers. Facial recognition technology, now being rolled out by OLG, allows facilities to better detect those who have signed up for the voluntary self-exclusion program. MODERNIZING LOTTERY AND GAMING IN ONTARIORFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario / Strategic Business Review 19 "OLG supports and engages with a wide range of stakeholders, and demonstrates its commitment to innovation through its support for players ... by actively reaching out to support and counselling services." RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY GREEN GAMING Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report World Lottery Association's award letter to OLG for Highest Certification for Responsible Gambling programs Gaming in Ontario is going green. For over four years, OLG's Bet On Green program has been lessening the environmental impact of OLG's operations, promoting environmental awareness to employees, increasing green awareness among customers and helping OLG become a global leader in energy-efficient gaming. The program focuses on paper reduction, employee engagement, customer education and reducing energy consumption. In new and renewed facilities, OLG will have the opportunity to increase environmental efforts. New buildings are likely to be LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified--as are OLG's most recent gaming site developments. Other current strategies could also extend to any new operations, including: o o ongoing paper reductions; and the use of environment-friendly certified cleaning products. These external controls will ensure that OLG's program is continually evaluated and improved so that it meets the best interests of Ontarians. OLG's role is to help prevent problems from occurring and to assist those who need it. In order for gaming to continue to be a safe, sustainable option for Ontarians and visitors, OLG wants to ensure a broad base of sustainable players who can gamble safely and play for many years. It is not in the interest of OLG or Ontario to attract problem gamblers. OLG's future role should be to continue to build on a culture of responsibility where front line staff can identify and respond to players who need help as part of basic customer service. At the same time, OLG will direct and require operators of lottery channels and gaming sites to exceed regulatory compliance standards. OLG will provide operators with strategic and tactical support, performance evaluations, incentives, and plans for improvement. Ontario must continue to expand its leadership in the responsible gambling field, so OLG recommends increasing funding. KEY CONSIDERATIONS o Employees would be affected by OLG's focus on oversight instead of all direct operations. Depending on decisions, there would be a transition period as many employees move from OLG to a private sector operator. Consider appropriate balance between customer knowledge for responsible gambling and business marketing purposes and privacy concerns. While increasing the role of the private sector in the delivery of lottery and gaming, it is even more important to focus on oversight and responsible gambling. Security and safe lottery and gaming are critical values to Ontario and must be maintained by OLG. o o SAFE PLAY Fair gambling is the foundation of player trust. In Ontario, games of chance are run with regulated and transparent odds, pay-out ratios, game mechanics and money management. Facilities and sales channels are monitored and well supported by licensed security officers, EMS trained staff, and as part of the oversight of the AGCO (Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario), by the presence of the Ontario Provincial Police. All gaming staff in Ontario are "Smart Serve" trained on the service of alcohol, and strict age verification requirements support lottery sales and access to gaming facilities. This would continue in a transformed gaming industry. o 20 RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario ONTARIO LOTTERY AND GAMING CORPORATION APPENDIX I RFI# 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario FOR INFORMATION ONLY Appendix A to Schedule B Modernizing Lottery & Gaming in Ontario Report Internet and Charitable Gaming INTERNET GAMING While only provinces or their designates are allowed to operate betting or lottery schemes under the Criminal Code of Canada, Ontarians wager an estimated $400 million on gambling websites that are not authorized in Ontario. The British Columbia Lottery Corporation and the Atlantic Lottery Corporation have created authorized internet lottery and gaming sites and Loto-Qu?bec also recently initiated "espacejeux" for online gaming in December of 2010. When it is first launched in late 2012 (and fully in 2013), OLG's internet gaming site will uphold standards aimed at protecting players from risks such as problem gambling and identity theft or financial fraud. Over the first five years of operation, internet gaming is estimated to deliver a cumulative $375 million in Net Profit to the Province and create about 50 jobs (both at OLG and in the industry) in Ontario. Following a staged rollout of products, OLG will deliver a full range of games on the internet through an online site accessible by computers and other internet-connected devices offering lottery ticket sales, interactive casinostyle games (against the house) and peer-to-peer games like poker. EXPANDED CHARITABLE GAMING OLG will roll out a standardized suite of paper and electronic games to all interested bingo halls in Ontario. (The suite of games will not include slot machines.) OLG will offer Bingo, Break-Open Tickets, Raffles and Lottery games or variations of these games to be played on paper, electronic devices or delivered through electronic dispensing units. Over eight years of operation, this Charitable Bingo and Gaming initiative will deliver about $475 million for Ontario charities. This initiative will create hundreds of part-time jobs while preserving the role of the thousands of volunteers who are currently involved in community-based charitable activity.

The Strategic Business Review team met with over 50 stakeholder groups from across the province and in a number of other jurisdictions. The consistent message from stakeholders was that the current model of lottery and land-based gaming in Ontario needs to change substantially in order to meet customers' needs. The Review team met with representatives from First Nations, casino owners, responsible gambling researchers, racetrack owners, horsepeople, industry leaders, operators in other jurisdictions, convenience store operators as well as related government organizations. Stakeholders raised three major issues: "OLG should be encouraging more private sector involvement or investment." Chippewas of Rama First Nation, Consultation, June 2, 2011 2. Private Sector Involvement OLG should take advantage of the expertise of the private sector to reduce the burden of capital investment on a government agency. It should increase third party operators' participation in the market. The result would be a return based on a reasonable risk/reward and substantially smaller costs. 1. Market Demand Stakeholders felt that the future of gaming should be determined by the market. Expansion or reduction in the number of sites, slot machines, table games and lottery distribution must be considered in the context of under- or over-serviced markets in the province. The GTA is one of the most under-served gaming markets in North America. 3. Re-define Purpose OLG should re-define its role as an operator, focusing on minimizing social costs while improving customer knowledge. This should also include clarification of OLG's role in responsible gambling. Stakeholders also raised concerns about: o The need for clarity in the roles and purpose of OLG relationship with stakeholders Transparency of where funds are allocated Transparency of relationships across the sector Efficiency of process Effective use of technology Fair implementation of rules and restrictions Communication from OLG should be consistent, respectful and timely Government should be at the forefront of responsible gambling initiatives (particularly in regard to online gaming) "Economics should drive the thinking, and it has not. Historical thinking has been 'slots are less than full casinos...' Both slots per adult and tables per adult are dramatically under proportion in the GTA compared to other large Canadian cities."

It is intended to gather information on respondents' views about the land based gaming business in the Province. In order to cover all key subjects, the questions are grouped into four main areas: gaming zones, OLG's role, compensation structure and other topics. Each respondent to the RFI should answer the questions below and submit them to OLG prior to the deadline defined in schedule A. 1 - Gaming zones For information regarding zones, please refer to Schedule B Section 4.3 of this RFI. a. Please identify which gaming zone or zones you would be most interested in submitting a proposal for the right to operate gaming. Please provide your rationale. b. The number of gaming zones permitted to be operated by a single service provider may be limited. Please rank the zones which would be most desirable to you, and explain why. c. Based on the gaming zones you are interested in, please comment on: i) If you were to create new zones or modify proposed zones in order to make them more attractive, what would you do? ii) Are there zones that should be combined or grouped together? If so, please provide rationale. d. What factors do you think OLG should consider when deciding whether to finalize the proposed zones or change them? e. Based on the gaming zones you are interested in, please comment on: i) The number of slot positions proposed for each zone in Appendix B to Schedule B. ii) Would you consider offering table games at each of those zones? If so, in which one of them? What is your rationale? f. If OLG were to go forward with a competitive RFP process, should all zones be tendered simultaneously or in a sequenced manner? Please provide rationale. g. Based on the gaming zones you expressed interest, if OLG were to pursue a competitive RFP process, how much time would be appropriate for you to develop a proposal for each zone? 2 - OLG's Role For information regarding OLG's role, please refer to Schedule B Section 5 of this document. RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule D - RFI Submission Requirements 1 FOR INFORMATION ONLY a. Given the functions OLG will continue to control or otherwise be involved in, how could OLG best implement control over these functions to ensure service providers are best able to maximize value? b. Based on the functions that OLG will control or continue to be involved in, please describe any significant challenges these will create. c. OLG may offer a single, integrated loyalty program common to all gaming sites in the Province. What impact would that have on your operations and the value attributed to running a gaming zone? d. Would you be interested in receiving any of the other centrally provided shared services that OLG may offer per schedule B? If so, which ones? How would you value each of these services? Are there other services that you would like to receive from OLG? e. Do you see value in OLG owning and maintaining the site-specific technology and infrastructure of the GMS at a site level (e.g., network cabling, SMIBs, etc.), rather than requiring service providers to integrate their physical technology into OLG's central GMS? What is your experience with accountability for system upgrades and replacements in a shared technology infrastructure? f. How quickly would you be able to implement the installation of the technology requirements for a new GMS at a site level? Would you see value in OLG performing the physical installation as a service? What implementation issues, if any, do you foresee? g. Assuming a service provider would have to assume all current employees for a determined period of time (e.g. 12 months), what would be the implications? 3 - Compensation Structure For information regarding compensation structure, please refer to Schedule B Section 4.2 of this RFI. a. What return on capital would you reasonably expect a service provider to earn? From your experience how does return on capital vary across site size and asset ownership structure (e.g., ownership of gaming equipment, total capital investment required)? b. How should the compensation structure account for capital expenditures (initial and ongoing)? How should it be managed? c. How can the possible disparity between asset life (e.g. new slot machines, buildings) and agreement duration be reconciled? Based on your experience, what do you suggest? d. How should key operating expenditures (e.g., marketing) be factored into the compensation structure for service providers? Should any of these expenditures be accounted for separately? Please provide your rationale. e. How could a fee for service arrangement be developed such that it fairly compensates highperforming service providers relative to low-performing ones? Please be specific using examples where possible. f. Identify the components of this structure that should be set vs. flexible (target revenues, percentage fee paid to service provider, performance penalties and incentives)? g. Describe the payment models that you are familiar with (e.g. one-time upfront payments, on-going compensation, etc)? What are the merits each? Why? RFI # 1213-001 Modernizing Land Based Gaming in Ontario Schedule D - RFI Submission Requirements 2 FOR INFORMATION ONLY h. Based on the gaming zone or zones you are interested in, what duration of agreement would be most reasonable? Please provide your rationale. 4 - Other topics a. In addition to the operation of a physical gaming site, if you had the opportunity to market an internet gaming site associated your own site brand, and operated on OLG's digital back-end (i.e., player account management system, regulated in Ontario), would you be interested in doing so? How much value would that add to a gaming zone? Describe how this relationship might work. b. Please provide any other comments on the opportunities that OLG has described in this RFI.
